Re: Trump's New Battleship....

It would never be the USS Trump unless 1) it included a golf course 2) all the brasswork was replaced with gold fittings 3) the final cost was at least three times the original estimates...   but that wouldn't be a problem, as Trump would immediately declare that he'd be making either the Russians o...

Re: Will there be lions?

I don't think he's thought this through. (No surprise there.). Every state sends a boy and a girl. (What about DC? And Guam??). California has 11.8% of the US population. I suspect that simple arithmetic suggests that CA will come top of the medals table. Blue states will probably do better than re...

The Trump-Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts

It wasn't enough that D. J. "Dishonest John" Trump removed and replaced the board of directors of the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in February of this year, replacing them with a hand-picked list of sycophants and designating himself as the chairman — no, when it came time for the Kennedy ...

Re: Top 10 Movies

Thinking of BSG's choice of It's a Wonderful Life, I may have watched that more times than I have Butch Cassidy, though it's close. That's one of those films that has a specific place in the year as does "A Christmas Story". I might watch both in the next two weeks. I'm going to be taking in a perf...

Re: First they came for the tourists . . .

What do they do if I just plead the 5th? Is it legal to plead the 5th if there is nothing I could truthfully say that would incriminate me? Could that be impeding a federal investigation?

Brilliant!!   Destroy the demand/desire for foreign visitors to come see things like the Statue of Liberty, the Grand Canyon, Yellowstone Park, or the California Redwoods — among other things.   Then Trump can claim that there's no need to preserve these places and start selling them off piecemeal t...

Re: Mouthbreathers too stupid to differentiate rainbows

Back in the 1980a and '90s, I used to be a member of a bicycle club called the Rainbow Cyclists, based out of Waterloo/Cedar Falls IA.   It was so-named after a roadway in the area — Rainbow Drive — which seemed to turn up on an inordinate number of the group's casual rides.   Rainbows and rainbow f...

Re: The Empire Strikes Back

The war on drugs is finally what it should have been all along: a real war on drugs. In the past, it was treated like a joke, but now it is no longer a joke. Those who import illicit drugs into the United States are enemies of the nation. They are killing and enslaving Americans. Tell me, liberty, ...

That said, I don’t see the big deal with showing your papers.

It doesn't make you a better or worse person. If it boosts your ego, there's something wrong with you, or maybe you're just ma...
